This ep is all about two well-known West-African trickster gods: Eshu and Anansi. We formalize ‘Vibe of the Week’ (1:08) and talk about:
- How Anansi became the god of all knowledge of stories (4:21)
- Eshu’s many roles, his dual nature and the English translation controversy (19:11)
- Anansi and the pot of wisdom (48:22)
Listen to the end for the African Proverb of the Day (51:45), and (of course) our 🔥 theme song!
